I believe asics are more risky cuz if something goes wrong you can always sell your GPUs but not asics. I would go with GPUs

That is right. It is better to get GPU to mine.

monero state war to asics, sumokoin fork to heavy, x16r is asic resistant.
with so many asic-proof algo development ahead, I would go GPU.
maybe this year asics is winning but years to come there will be a winter for asics.
thats my prediction, sir Cool

I am a beginner in the topic of cryptocurrency.BTC I heard from a friend that you can simply buy ASIC Mining on the Internet and create your own farm. We threw money, got an order ... That's cool! Machine is super! The manufacturer says that it is the most powerful machine in the world, and it's true! Crypt is the future! Shocked Shocked Shocked

Right now none of them as bitcoin and other crypto prices are not that high and the difficulty is up for most coins. If you still want to mine then the Gpus would be a more easy way to mine, the price of Rx series is down at the moment and you can build a Gpu rig with 1000 dollars easily, can mine different coins and would not be dependent on only or few algorithms like Asics are.

Gpu's is the way to go.
You can always sell 'em or just put em to a side if expenses are too high for the moment.
Asic's for me are bonus stuff.
Me myself also like to do stuff with computer so Asic's plug and play system are not for me.

ASIC mining is growing in recent days but it is not a highly recommend because they don't ha e provide warranty in my country so all are move to GPU mining. The current market is uncontrollable so all the coins are dump continuously it is reflected in mining platform. I think we should start trading in this dip.

If you are thinking of installing mining equipment at home, then don’t even think about ASICs. They are very noisy and cannot be used in rooms where people live. GPUs now give less profit, but they are more versatile.

How much time do you have?

how much time can you spend to research, tweak, monitor, RD, look into speculations of altcoins?, if the answer is you have enough time, go for GPU.

If you want something that you buy and set up once using a simple youtube video and a bit of common sense for for ASIC. they are loud, you can silence them BUT never use them in the same room as you work/live/study/sleep  Grin.

Both are a very good source of heat in the winter and both hate dust.

ROI has been covered and it is the same here with one addition, depending on luck you can still resell your ASIC for a hefty amount even after 6 months, and if you are really lucky you may sell it after 1 year with more than you payed on it ( not including the transport and custom fees, and definitely not if you purchased yours in the hype of January.

Crypto mining hardware can make or break your cryptocurrency mining venture. It is, thus, essential that you choose the right hardware to make the most out of your cryptocurrency mining journey. If you want to mine multiple currencies, GPU is the right choice for you. On the contrary, if your focus is on mining a single cryptocurrency, ASIC cryptocurrency mining hardware are certainly your thing

A lot of people are scared to buy ASICs, they are designed for one purpose and they lose value fast.  At least gpus have a solid resale value and its much easier to find buyers if you have to liquidate quickly.  I know some people think GPU mining is dead but as long as there are profits to be made people will continue on.

for now, it looks like ASIC is less attractive, but I think ASIC will be popular again when market prices recover. well, however, I will also choose GPU. although it's not as strong as ASIC, but I think it's like gold that we use to find other gold. well, as long as we take care of it, the GPU is still very much needed by people, so it's easier to sell it again.

First both are good choices, but since you have enough fund, I will suggest GPU mining as you can resale it for a good value should you not want it again unlike ASIC. Also, you can customize it to suit your taste as well as switching algorithm.

ASIC are good but the problem only support less coins unlike GPU mining that you can mine any coins you want and many different algos.

ASIC will give you profit in few months but since the difficulty increases and possibly price drop of some coins you won't get your ROI fast unless if the price is continuesly increasing.

Mining with GPU does not generate much profits as ASIC does. If you are afraid of investing funds into mining of cryptocurrencies then you would not make much profits. Also, now that the crypto market is rising it would be best to set up some ASIC rigs and start your mining activities.

They are both unique in their own ways. Bear in mind that ASIC is loud and not as versatile as GPU but it gives faster ROI and profit.  GPU in its own way is more versatile than ASIC as you can use it for  mining of varrious coins

I think it's not just me that loves GPU, my own reason for  is that, GPU tends to be customizable, in the same way the algorithm can be switched efficiently. Also, when I get tired of it I can resale for a good price.
The only demerit, is that it is costly than its counterpart, but since you have the funds, you can give it a trial.

 The two have distinct characteristics and quite useful in their own way. ASIC is better in terms efficiency and better profits, but it does not support the mining of variety of coins but it will give you more profits than a GPU
